A Prophetic Dream, The Wish Fulfilling and Buddha’s Blessing Mantra Pendant, and A Wonderful Blessing

Today, I would like to share with you a story of yet another reader. Let’s just call him D.

D wrote me an email a few months back. However, because of the numerous emails that I received a day, I was not able to reply sooner. After about 3 emails, I chanced upon one of his latest email last February and replied.

D said he’s a regular reader of my blog and claims to have read each and every single post that I’ve written. He also said that he’s been wanting to get the WISH FULFILLING AND BUDDHA’S BLESSING MANTRA pendant but thought that I it might be expensive. I told that, unfortunately, it is indeed the case because according to my jeweler it is quite difficult to make it because of the intricate design.

Front side of the WISH FULLFILLING AND BUDDHA’S BLESSING PENDANT

D said he wants to get the pendant because his wife his currently pregnant and while he still has some savings, he just lost his job. He is hoping to go into business; however, he felt that it is not the right time for him to get into something big because of his wife’s pregnancy.

I agreed to do a basic reading of D’s BAZI, and it showed that going into business might be better for him. However, he said, he is more inclined to just go back and look for work just to be on the safe side. I recommended some Feng Shui charms that he can wear which he can buy either online or in Chinatown.

However, two days after we talked. D called me up again, and told me about a dream that disturbed him. He said, in his dream, his Arowana spit out the WISH FULFILLING AND BUDDHA’S BLESSING MANTRA pendant and that he was suddenly surrounded by several large beautiful aquariums filled with various different beautiful fishes.

I’m not a dream interpreter. However, in Feng Shui Fish and Water are almost always a sign of money luck. The key word here is that in his dream he saw BEAUTIFUL aquariums and BEAUTIFUL fishes, which gave me an indication that it’s a good sign.  I was cautious not to relate the WISH FULFILLING AND BUDDHA’S BLESSING AND MANTRA pendant with his possible good fortune because I don’t want him to think that I’m trying to sell him my pendant. However, D raised the question of the relation of the pendant to the fishes, that’s when I told him getting the pendant or simply tapping on the images found on the pendant might be the key for him to get the money luck as indicated in his dream.

The key word on D’s dream is that he saw what he describes as beautiful fishes and aquarium.

Dennis decided to request me to have the pendant made for him. Last March, about a month after from he requested it, he finally got the pendant, and believes that the pendant will help him get a job. However, about 2 weeks ago D called me to inform me that he still haven’t found a job, but something better happened. His wife’s uncle called them up to inform him that he is retiring, however, since all his children are in the US, nobody will run his business for him. It’s a good business that earns a substantial income every month and it will be a waste to just close shop. He wants his niece and D to take over the business. They agreed on a price, which they’ll have to pay off monthly and the business is theirs already.

D feels that this wonderful blessing was all because of the WISH FULFILLING AND BUDDHA’S BLESSING MANTRA pendant. As for me, I’m just happy that the pendant that I designed for myself and my family and friends is now an instrument for a lot of people to receive blessings and I have shared some of these testimonies here on this blog. The titles are : WISH FULFILLED WITH THE ‘WISH FULFILLING AND BUDDHA’S BLESSING MANTRA PENDANT’ – A PERSONAL TESTIMONY and the other one is ANOTHER WISH FULFILLED WITH THE ‘WISH FULFILLING AND BUDDHA’S BLESSING MANTRA PENDANT’. There are a lot of my readers who shares with me the blessings that they get when they get the pendant. For some people, it is simply as making them calmer. But for me I’m just really happy that something I designed for myself and for family and friends in now an instrument for people to tap into good Feng Shui.

Incidentally, I would like to share here that while I do accept requests for the pendant, please understand that I’m not a seller and neither is this my job. This is just something that I do on the side and I have my own business that I run. Sharing this here because I don’t want confusion that you’ll get your pendant anytime you want, you will have to wait until I finish working on your bazi to identify the stone that needs to be put on your pendant and for production time.

Many people who request for the pendant has problems that they go through that is why they get the pendant, no one can say whether your problem is bigger than that of the other thus you need the pendant more. I felt I needed to add this one as a learning from my experience with CR.

The Eight Auspicious Objects of Buddhism: The Mystical Mystic Knot, The Victory Banner, and The Dharmachakra Wheel

The Victory Banner is considered as one of the 8 Auspicious Object in Buddhism.

I have previously written about the Mystic Knot, and the Victory Banner. If you wish to know more about it, please just click on the following link:

The Mystical Mystic Knot and The Victory Banner: A Powerful Feng Shui Tool for Career Success.

The last object on the 8 Auspicious Objects of Buddhism is the Dharmachakra Wheel.

The truth is Dharmachakra means Wheel, so to call it Dharmachakra Wheel is a bit redundant, however, Dharmachakra Wheel is a term where most people outside Tibet are familiar with, so it is the term that I’ll be using here.

The Dharmachakra Wheel is a symbol of Buddha’s teaching, however, the different parts each have their own iconography. The rim represents the factor of limitation, the hub represents the Earth’s axis, and the eight spokes shows the Eightfold Path dictated by Buddha.

In Feng Shui, the Dharmachakra Wheel is a powerful symbol to use for surmounting all shortcomings. Furthermore, the Dharmachakra Wheel is a powerful protection symbol that we can use to protect all the non-material things that are important to us.

The Eight Auspicious Objects of Buddhism: The Conch Shell

In ancient times the Conch Shell is used as a trumpet horn, and was considered as a symbol of strength and sovereignty. It is also said that ‘heroic figures’ are also given the conch shell as a symbol of gratitude from the ruler. Religiously, specially in Tibetan Buddhism, the conch shell is a ‘vessel’ for holy water and holy oil, and is also used as a trumpet to signify the start of an important religious event.

In Feng Shui, the conch shell is a powerful tool for those who wants to be able to prosper in their business ventures. It is also extremely beneficial for politicians to carry a conch shell because it will help them be stable in their position.

Carrying a conch shell is also a powerful tool to help a person attain a higher level of meditation.

Another Wish Fulfilled with the ‘Wish Fulfilling and Buddha’s Blessing Mantra Pendant’ –

It was several months ago when I got an email about a woman who shared with me how the WISH FULFILLING AND BUDDHA’S BLESSING MANTRA PENDANT fulfilled her wish. I called the post Wish Fulfilled with the WISH FULFILLING AND BUDDHA’S BLESSING MANTRA PENDANT – A PERSONAL TESTIMONY OF A READER.

As the title indicates, this is yet another personal testimony of a reader.

I wanted this post to be written by my reader who shared with me this experience. However, she declined saying her written English is really. Well…mine is bad either, but that’s a different topic.

Anyway, K is a 37 years old married woman from Chinese – Vietnamese who resides in Vietnam. She first contacted me late last year through email, according to her it was her 4^th email and I didn’t reply to her first three emails. I apologized to her and explained that I received about between 50 to 75, there are times that it goes beyond 100, emails a day, and as much as I want to read all of them and respond to all emails, it is just physically impossible. As most readers would know this is just something that I do because I want to and that I have my own business that I need to take care of and not to mention that I recently just got a new dog. But that’s another story on its own.

Going back to K, she emailed me because she wants to ask for a Feng Shui help. K has been married to her husband for more than 10 years, and they have two daughters and a son. According to K, her husband and she are childhood sweethearts and that she knows that her husband is a good person. However, because of the nature of her husband’s job that entails a lot of travelling to other countries, he is always out of the house.

Little by little, K noticed that her husband since to become more aloof, and it was no longer just the physical separation that she has to think about but also the emotional separation. In fact, K said that her husband seems to be not home even when he’s home. She soon found out that her husband is involved with an Indonesian woman.

She was really surprised as much as she was hurt about what she found out, because she really believes that her husband is a very good person and that they were truly in-love, but more than that the husband has requested for a legal separation and that they he has moved out of the house.

Her kids took the separation badly and they started failing in schools and started becoming problem children. Furthermore, K’s career seems to be stagnant and her financial growth seems to have been stagnant for the past several years.

I decided to ask for K’s birthdate and did her Bazi for her. After which I also suggested a slew of Feng Shui cures for her problems. I didn’t dare recommend the WISH FULFILLING AND BUDDHA’S BLESSING AND MANTRA PENDANT because I myself find it to be quite pricey. However, K asks for it and insisted that I get her one. I did. I never heard from K again, that is not until approximately 2 weeks ago.

Front side of the WISH FULFILLING AND BUDDHA’S BLESSING PENDANT

It was around 10pm when I receive a call on my mobile phone with an unknown number. I debated whether to take the call because I already had a really busy day and was quite tired. But curiosity got the better of me and I answered. It was K, calling me long distance from Vietnam.

I still remember the very first words of K, she said – JP, I GOT GOOD NEWS! I THANK YOU FOR HELP! MY FAMILY TOGETHER AGAIN! – She said in broken English. I didn’t quite get it right away, because by then I’ve forgotten about her situation, besides she didn’t even introduce herself. I said welcome and asked who was on the phone. She then introduced herself again.

According to K, after she got the pendant, she was very excited about the change that will come. However, after a week she didn’t notice any change that she got a little disappointed. She wanted to just take it off, however, she said she’d just give it a chance. About a month after she got the pendant, her boss informed her that she was being transferred to another department, to head it, and naturally, there was an increase the salary as well. Not only that, after about 2 weeks after she was informed of her promotion, her children’s school guidance counselor called her to inform her that her children is slowly growing back to their old self.

At that point, she started attributing all of the changes to the WISH FULFILLING AND BUDDHA’S BLESSING MANTRA PENDANT, but a part of her is not sure. Then she got a call from her husband who requested to meet with her. She agreed, and in tears and literally on bended knees the husband requested for forgiveness and requested that she accept her again.

She called me the night after her husband moved in to their house again. She said it was really the WISH FULFILLING AND BUDDHA’S BLESSING MANTRA PENDANT that fulfilled all fixed her problems.

The back side of the WISH FULFILLING AND BUDDHA MANTRA BLESSING PENDANT has the images of the Victory Banner, Lung-Ta or Windhorse, the seed syllable of the Goddess Tara – TAM, and the symbolic script of the MEDICINE BUDDHA MANTRA, WISH FULFILLING MANTRA, and the NEGATIVE KARMA CLEANSING MANTRA.

The Eight Auspicious Objects of Buddhism: The Lotus

There are a lot of Buddhist and Taoist icons that are depicted either sitting on a lotus or are holding a lotus. This is because the growth pattern of  a lotus represents the development that a being can make. The lotus has the ability to blossom out of dirty or muddy water – which represents materialism, the it grows past the water – which indicates experience, and make its way towards the sun – which represents enlightenment. It is a symbol of both mental and spiritual purity. The lotus which is a water flower is a symbol of blossoming decent deeds, that results in purification of the both mind and body.

In Feng Shui, the lotus also has the power to transform bad luck into good luck, and it is also said that the lotus has the power to drive out negative energies.

Wearing an image of the lotus made of a white stone or jade will help bring lots of blessings. It will also help in the attainment of the enlightenment.

The Eight Auspicious Objects of Buddhism: The Wealth Vase or Treasure Vase

In one of my earlier post entitled FENG SHUI TIPS TO ENHANCE WEALTH LUCK,  I talked about the treasure vase, now allow me to briefly talked about it again. The treasure vase, even without the ritual and powerful ingredients that goes with it is a very powerful wealth – granting symbol or object. It is a powerful object that brings tons of material and financial prosperity.

In China, a lot of the rich people their has wealth vase hidden in their cupboard or cabinets. Some of the noveau rich in China also has wealth vase in their living rooms. I personally believe that wealth vases should be hidden and not displayed.

The Eight Auspicious Objects of Buddhism: A Pair of Golden Fish

A pair of fish represents harmony, good family life, happiness, fertility and recovery. Given that the pair of fish are golden, it also represents abundance. In China, the fish also symbolizes unity and loyalty, and it is for this reason that the golden fish are often offered as wedding gifts to symbolize an abundant long peaceful life of the couple.

Thus a pair of golden fish is good for people who are facing financial troubles with their partners.

Takrud: Another Powerful Thai Amulet Known as the Good Luck Scrolls

In my last visit in Thailand, I was very fortunate enough to be able to get hold several pieces of an original Takrud also known as the Good Luck Scrolls.

Takrud is one of the ancient amulets of the Thai people. It is an extremely powerful amulet that is good for attracting wealth luck, love luck, and it also serves as a protection amulet.

I’ve been looking for a Takrud for several years now, and in my previous visits to Thailand, I always fail to get a Takrud from respectable sources. However, during my last visit where I got the Jatukam Ramathep amulets, I was also lucky enough to get this charm.

I first heard about the Takrud several years back when my Feng Shui teacher in Hong Kong mentioned it to me. According to him, a former Thai maid that he employs had a series of bad luck back in Thailand. He tried to help her with Feng Shui; however, given that she lives far from her family Feng Shui can only help her but not really her family. One of her biggest problem is that her sister who is base in Thailand is having a series of bad luck, one of which is that she was dump by her boyfriend after her getting her pregnant and she also has a huge debt to pay. My Feng Shui teacher’s maid is very worried about her sister.

However, one day, my Feng Shui teacher’s maid approached my Feng Shui teacher to ask for a loan. She said she met another Thai who is selling an authentic Takrud. My Feng Shui, although was surprised with the amount, agreed to give her a loan. He was also curious about what will the Takrud do to benefit the sister of her maid.

To make the long story short, less than a year after the sister got the Takrud, my Feng Shui teacher’s maid was very happy to announce that her sister aside from being able to start her own business, she is also about to marry, not the father of her new born son, but her childhood sweetheart whom she met again after 5 years of no communication at the hospital where she gave birth. Apparently, the guy is now a doctor.

Other than the story shared by my Feng Shui teacher, a Thai friend who helped me look for the authentic Takrud also shared with me that in one of his recent trip to one of the Northern province of Thailand that is famous for rebels/bandits, the Takrud in the weirdest sort of manner protected him. He was sent by his office to the province to monitor their project there. Knowing full well that the place is not safe for people who are not native to the area, he decided to wear his Takrud. When he got to the province, the local counterpart welcome them with some local delicacy, which includes eating a delicacy consists of raw meat. Their team leader instructed all of them to avoid that particular delicacy because they were set to travel early morning the following day and the team leader don’t want anybody from his getting ill because of that particular delicacy.

However, he surprised everybody including himself by not just ‘disobeying’ their team leader but also by finishing a whole bowl of the said delicacy. This was surprising because he is a very picky eater. He said he doesn’t understand where he got the courage to eat the said delicacy and how was he able to stomach it. But he soon had to pay for it, because the same evening he fell ill and had a very bad case of upset stomach. His team leader was obviously irritated, reprimanded him, but also gave excuse him from joining to trip to their project site the following morning.

That afternoon, he started feeling better; in fact, he was so well that it ‘almost feel like that I never got sick at all…’ He decided to follow his team, however, before he was able to leave they received news that his teammates were all captured by the bandits who call themselves government rebels. Two members of the team were killed and the others were only released after their company paid for the ransom. To this day, it remains to be one of the most high profile cases of kidnapping in Thailand.

My friend believes that it was the Takrud who saved him and that he got sick because that’s the only reason why he was excused from joining the trip. He somehow felt guilty for what happened to his team but his family was all happy that he survived and was saved by the Takrud.

Another story, which was shared to me by a Chinese Thai businessman. He said, that at age 43 he felt that his life was going nowhere. He was single and believes that he will never be able to get married. Furthermore, his life was going nowhere; he felt that his financial and career life has hit a plateau and that he was destined to become a ‘loser’ for the rest of his life. That is until an uncle who loves him dearly gave him one authentic Takrud.

He said that his life drastically change because of the Takrud. He never thought that he’ll be able to get married before the Takrud, but he found the ‘love of his life’ and now has 3 children, he also one of the biggest car rental service in Thailand. At the time that I met him he was only 49 that was only 6 years after the time he felt that he was destined to be a loser forever!

These stories made me want to get hold of the Takrud, and I would like to share my personal story about the Takrud. To be honest, I didn’t thought that the Takrud will be able to make a big impact on me because Feng Shui, Buddhism, and Taoism has already blessed me with so much good luck. However, when I got hold of the Takrud about a couple of months there are a series of things that happened that helped me get one of the biggest thing that I ever wished for. To clarify things, this is something that I really want but at the same time because of the amount good luck that I’ve experienced is willing to let go. Nevertheless, it seems that after I got hold of the Takrud fate has conspired to give me this thing. Unfortunately, this involves other people and I won’t be able to share what is this thing. At least, not yet.

If you notice, I always put authentic in describing the Takrud that I discussed here because there are a lot of fake Takrud both in Thailand and on the net. In fact, there are more fake Takrud than Jatukam Ramathep because it’s easier to fake the Takrud. So you see, how happy I was when I was given the chance to get an authentic Takrud, more than that, the chance to get more than one Takrud!

But what is a Takrud exactly. A Takrud is also called as the Good Luck Scroll because it consists of very thin gold, silver and copper leaf inscribed with powerful prayers. The inscription consists both of actual physical inscription and celestial inscription. They are then rolled into miniature scrolls put into a glass case and are worn as a pendant.

For a Takrud to become authentic and effective they must have all of the following components: Made a powerful high ranking monk, made in a temple that has the Takrud lineage, and lastly, the gold, silver, and copper, must have been offered to Buddha for not less than 5 years.

A Takrud is a very powerful amulet, but like all Thai amulets you must be careful and be discerning as to where you get it.

The Eight Auspicious Objects of Buddhism: An Introduction and The Parasol

I know I have written about some of the 8 Auspicious Objects of Buddhism in passing before, but I really haven’t written about all of them. So please allow me to introduce you to The Eight Auspicious Objects of Buddhism and it’s Feng Shui use.

Before anything else, allow me to share that the 8 Auspicious Objects are a series of different symbols that individually and collectively represents different forms of luck. The Eight Auspicious Objects, which is also called as the Eight Auspicious Symbols, appeared on many different types of Buddhist artifacts like paintings, carvings, etc. Each symbol on its own represents a feature of Buddhist teaching, and corresponds to a certain blessing. When shown together, they become some form a wish-fulfilling symbol of the different aspirations and also becomes a protective symbol.

The Eight Auspicious Objects are the parasol, the wealth vase, lotus, the conch shell, the mystical mystic knot (also known as the endless knot), a pair of golden fish, the victory banner, and the dharmachakra wheel.

The first of these 8 Auspicious Symbols is the Parasol.

As most people know, the parasol which is an umbrella used for protection from the heat and rays of the sun. The parasol is an ancient symbol of protection used by the royalty, thus it represents protection, which is bestowed upon the beholder of this auspicious object.

The Parasol is said to prevent sadness, anguish, and obstacles. Its secondary effect is to protect us from devious spiritual forces. Thus this is the object carried by one of the most powerful protection goddess of Buddhism – the WHITE UMBRELLA GODDESS.

The White Umbrella Goddess which is a powerful protection goddess holds the Parasol.

As it is use by royalty, it can also represent a good life blessed with wealth especially those who are venturing into new things.

The 8 Auspicious Objects of Buddhism Combined into 1 Auspicious Object.

Myth Buster 12: Pets Bring in Good Luck

Ok, I know this will raise some eyebrows. Am I contradicting my previous posts about having pets at home bringing in good Feng Shui? Read on and you’ll see what I’m trying to say.

Feng Shui consultants and experts always say that having pets at home brings in Yang energy that helps in ushering good Feng Shui luck. I’m personally guilty of saying that statement and I’ve done that several times in this blog.

However, an email from two separate readers jolted me from the reality that I, and other Feng Shui writers, consultants, and/or experts have been contributing to the myth that pets brings in good Feng Shui. The statement is not exactly wrong, but failing to clarify things and putting the full context created a myth.

Pets don’t bring in good Feng Shui. Happy, well taken care of, and balanced pets brings in good Feng Shui, any pets in general won’t do that.

I came to this realization when two of my readers emailed me about their pets. One said that she got a dog and was asking how soon will she see their good luck, and the other one emailed me asking whether their 2 rabbits that have been constantly biting each other will create some bad luck for them. These two readers are more concerned about the luck that their pets will bring in rather the welfare of the pets.

Please note that the primary reason of getting a pet shouldn’t be about Feng Shui, and neither it should be having a guard. Personally, I think it should be about trying to extend your love to another living being. For Buddhism, a pet or any living thing at that has a soul, and taking care of a pet is like taking care of the soul who had a bad karma of being born as a lesser being.

If boosting good Feng Shui is as simple as getting a pet, I would have gotten one a long time ago. However, I postponed it for a long time because I’m not sure whether I can properly take care of another living being. It’s a big responsibility. I know that if your dog is not happy, well taken care of, and/or balance, then not only they will not bring in good luck, but more negative karma are created because you then create a depress, imbalance dog with a lot of pent up energy.

So if you’re bigger concern is more about the good Feng Shui and/or the negative energy that you’re fighting pets are creating then you are on the wrong track. You’re concern for your personal luck shouldn’t be above another living being.
